Great idea for a Daly Lock thread. IMO, the emphasis should be determining not only lock design and sourcing, but mfg date using serial number, and relationship to the specific Lindner in charge at the time.

Those aspects would be nice to know for those considering purchase of a Prussian Daly.

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
